Bibliography

[edit]

This is where you will compile the bibliography for your Wikipedia assignment.

Reference 1

Summary: The Apalachicola Bay is predicted to increase in salt content and hinder the population growth of oysters. Flow should be maintained to manage oyster reproduction and reef habitat. [1]

Incorporation: I plan to use this article as a way to give insight into how oyster populations in Apalachicola Bay is expected to change. I will also use this to convey the importance of flow and connect this to the ACF water wars and Apalachicola oyster fisheries.  

Reference 2

Summary: The understanding of how river discharge influences oyster abundance is not fully developed. As a result, flow management is difficult because manager are unsure of how oyster populations respond to changes in flow. [2]

Incorporation: I intend to use this article to briefly explained how flow vs. oyster abundance has changed over time. It also provides information on why this understanding is complex and variable. I do not think that this article refutes the information in the (Wang et al. 2008) article, however it is a reminder that researchers are still understanding the relationship between river flow and oyster reef growth.


Reference 3

Summary: This report explores the ecological factors influencing oyster distribution, how drought in the ACF basin influence prompts changes in biodiversity within the Apalachicola bay. This text also provides insight into the ACF water wars and water use challenges in the southeast.[3]

Incorporation: I will use this article to provide more details on the biodiversity and species management occurring within the Apalachicola Bay. I also plan to use it to provide a background into the ACF water wars and how they connect to the oyster decline in the Apalachicola Bay.


Reference 4

Summary: Restoring Apapachicola Bay Oyster fisheries would yield a positive increase in economic activity. Industries that would benefit from sustainable oyster fishery management include seafood production, wholesale and retail seafood sales, and tourism.[4]

Incorporation: This article is useful in sharing information on the economic benefits of restoring oyster fisheries in the Apalachicola Bay. This benefits local communities, long-term oyster fishers, and the recreation/culture surrounding the bay.


Reference 5

Summary: Population growth of metropolitan Atlanta and irrigation has contributed to the climate change driven droughts in the southeast. This led to water conflicts between Georgia, Alabama, and Florida, weakening oyster fishery business in the Apalachicola Bay and inducing water use restrictions. [5]

Incorporation: I plan to use this article to explain how climate change has led to lower flows in the ACF basin and recurring drought in the Apalachicola River. It highlights the connection between climate change and the weakened oyster industry in the Apalachicola Bay.
